PIne.Bark as a Dict.

One article of subsistence sometimes
employed by the Indians is only resorted
to when they are driven TO great straits
by hunger. Around many of the water
ing-places in the pine forests OF Oregon
and California the trees Of Pinug pom
dcrOsa may be seen stripped of their
blrk for a space Of three or four feet near
The base Of the trunk This has been
accomplished by cutting with hatchet
a line around the tree as high as one
could conveniently reach, and another
lower down, so that the bark, severed
above and below, could be removed
in strips. At certain seasons Of
the year a mucilaginOu9 film 0he libur-
NUM- separates the bark from the wood
of the trunk. Part Of this film adheres
10 each surface and may be scrapcd of.
The resulting mixture Of mucilage- e-cclls
and half-formcd wood Is nutritious and
not unpalatablc, 50 that, as last resort,
IL may be used as a defense against star
